1.INTRODUCTION:

Apple's new iPad has helped to define the broader tablet market, even though it has yet to ship,

according to research firm ABI Research. The firm said Tuesday that shipments of tablet devices

- defined as touchscreen interface devices measuring five to eleven inches with WiFi, video and

gaming capabilities, will measure four million units in 2010, and rise to 57 million units by 2015,

prodded along by the iPad.

How big is it? The iPad's screen offers a maximum resolution of 1,024x768 pixels and

measures 9.7 inches diagonally, 5.75 inches wide, and 7.75 inches

tall. An 0.86-inch bezel frames the screen (with a hair extra room

on the bottom to account for the home button), making the front of

the iPad a total of 7.47 inches wide and 9.56 inches tall. The total

thickness of the iPad is half an inch at its thickest point, whichtapers down to a quarter of an inch near the edges. Total weight is

1.5 pounds for the model with Wi-Fi only, or 1.6 pounds for the

version with 3G.





What hardware features does the iPad offer?

Many of the iPad's hardware capabilities are identical to the Apple

iPod Touch, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, a stereo audio output

(headphone jack), built-in speaker, an integrated lithium ion

rechargeable battery, and NAND flash memory. A built-inaccelerometer and ambient light sensor are also included on theiPad.

Hardware features that distinguish the iPad from the iPod Touch

include a 1GHz A4 processor, an oleophobic screen coating,

integrated digital compass, built-in microphone, mute switch, andsupport for 802.11n Wi-Fi (in addition to 802.11b/g). The 3G

version of the iPad includes a SIM card tray, as well as assisted GPS

capabilities.

What's the deal with the wireless plan? Apple and AT&T are offering a pretty good deal on 3G service for the iPad. There are two

options: $15 a month for 250MB of data, or unlimited data for $29.99 a month. The bonus is

that you don't have to sign any contracts that bind you to the device for two years. Each

option can be prepaid for a month in advance. Again, you need the iPad 3G model, which

bumps up the baseline price of the device to $629 (16GB), $729 (32GB), and $829 (64GB).

If I already have apps for my iPhone or iPod Touch, can I use

them on the iPad?

In most cases, the answer should be yes. Older or existing apps can

run on the iPad at their native iPod/iPhone resolution (taking up asmall portion of the iPad screen) or used in a full-screen mode that

artificially doubles the resolution. So long as the apps are in youriTunes library when you connect the iPad to your computer, most

should transfer with no problem. There are exceptions, of course.

Apps designed to take advantage of unique hardware characteristics

of the iPhone (such as the photo camera or video recording) maynot transfer, and would be useless on the iPad anyway.

When and where can I buy it, and how much is this going to

set me back?

There are two versions of the iPad. Apple announced Friday that the

Wi-Fi version will launch in the U.S. on April 3, followed by the Wi-Fiand 3G-capable edition later in the month. Both versions will hit

Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain,

Switzerland, and the U.K. in late April.

The price depends on your 3G needs and how much storage you

require. The iPad's Wi-Fi-only version will start at $499 for 16GB of





memory, $599 for 32GB, and $699 for 64GB. The Wi-Fi + 3G

edition will cost $629 for 16GB, $729 for 32GB, and $829 for 64GB.

You can preorder both versions starting March 12, and you can

order it for delivery from Apple.com or reserve a Wi-Fi version to

pick up on April 3 at any Apple retail store.

In late March, Apple announced that the iPad would go on sale at all

221 U.S. Apple retail stores and most Best Buy stores on Saturday,April 3, beginning at 9 a.m. local time. The device will also be

available at select Apple authorized resellers and campus

bookstores.

Touch, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, a stereo audio output (headphone jack), built-in speaker, an integrated lithium ion rechargeable battery, andNAND flash memory. A built-in accelerometer and ambient light sensor are

also included on the iPad.

15.What's the deal with the wireless plan?

Apple and AT&T are offering a pretty good deal on 3G service for the i Pad.There are two options: $15 a month for 250MB of data, or unlimited data for$29.99 a month. The bonus is that you don't have to sign any contracts that

bind you to the device for two years. Each option can be prepaid for a monthin advance. Again, you need the iPad 3G model, which bumps up the baseline

price of the device to $629 (16GB), $729 (32GB), and $829 (64GB).

16.If I already have apps for my iPhone or iPod Touch, can I usethem on the iPad?

In most cases, the answer should be yes. Older or existing apps can run onthe iPad at their native iPod/iPhone resolution (taking up a small portion of

the iPad screen) or used in a full -screen mode that artificially doubles the

resolution. So long as the apps are in your iTunes library when you connect

the iPad to your computer, most should transfer with no problem. There areexceptions, of course. Apps designed to take advantage of unique hardwarecharacteristics of the iPhone (such as the photo camera o r video recording)

may not transfer, and would be useless on the iPad anyway.

That said, many popular apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch will likely be

offered in a new iPad-specific version that makes better use of the device'slarger screen. These apps, designed specifically for the iPad, will not be

backward-compatible with the iPhone and iPod Touch.

17.I've heard the iPad is basically just an oversize iPod Touch. Is thattrue? In some ways, it is a supersized version of Apple's touch -screen iPod: same

basic look and functionality with its multitouch screen and reliance on iTunesand the App Store to install applications and download media. But there areplenty of differences.

18.After I get my iPad, what happens if the battery dies? You'll have to have Apple replace the battery, as is the case with the iPhone

and the iPod. And it'll cost you: Apple has set a fee of $99 for the service.Add on $6.95 for shipping and the price rises to $105.95 per unit. For your

money, you'll actually get a whole replacement iPad, but not any personal





data from your original device. You'll have to make sure you kee p an up-to-date backup of all that data--contacts, calendars, e-mail account, and so on.
